The Uruguay international scored 34 goals in 41 appearances during the 2021/22 season, leading to plenty of interest among all teams come to the transfer window.

The two clubs currently leading the charge are Manchester United and Liverpool. United seemed to be running a one-person race until earlier today, which is when it was reported that Nunez is considering Liverpool as well. The 22-year-old striker can surely bolster any teams attacking front, and he will surely change the future premier league odds with his arrival.

If Nunez moves to Liverpool, that may be a farewell to Sengalese native Sadio Mane, who has been rumored to be linked to Bayern Munich. Nunez is surely a great addition, but it remains unseen as to whether or not he can fill a Sadio Mane sized hole.
